Xin chào! I am a Lecturer at Faculty of Information Technology, University of Science, VNU-HCM, under the prestigious VNU350 Project. Previously, I was a Research Fellow at Air Traffic Management Research Institute, Nanyang Technological University (NTU). Before that, I was a Research Scientist at Preferred.AI. I completed my PhD at SMU School of Computing and Information Systems, supervised by Prof. Hady W. Lauw. My dissertation is on Recommendation Explanation, providing rationale for given recommendations. My research interests include web mining, recommender systems, trustworthy artificial intelligence, and air traffic management.

Earlier in my career, I was a Software Engineer at KMS Technology. I completed my bachelor’s degree at VNU-HCM University of Science, Advanced Program in Computer Science, during which I had a stint as a Research Assistant at VNU-HCM John von Neumann Institute.

I am grateful for the following supportive scholarships that helped me afford my study: SMU Full Scholarships, SMU Presidential Doctoral Fellowship, 2020 SDSC Dissertation Research Fellowship. My first paper won a Distinguished Paper Award at IJCAI’20.
